## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability saylor-innovations-bitcoin-network-status-ff6081fe
```

Example prompt: What's the current Bitcoin block height and how much should I pay in sat/vB to get my transaction confirmed in the next block versus waiting a day?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, low-cost real-time snapshot of Bitcoin network conditions — specifically block height and tiered fee estimates in sat/vB — without needing to run your own node or integrate a heavier blockchain data provider. Best suited for agents making fee decisions, monitoring blockchain progress, or enriching transaction workflows with live fee context.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream Bitcoin node or data source unavailable — block_height or fee estimates may return null
- Network timeout causing delayed or missing response
- Fee estimate tiers unavailable if mempool data source is unreachable
- Payment authorization failure (402) if x402 payment is not included or insufficient

## How this service works

Bitcoin network status - block height and fee estimates in sat/vB from next block to 1 day

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the current Bitcoin block height (number or null), fee estimates in sat/vB broken down by confirmation target (e.g. next block through ~1 day), and the data source used to retrieve the information.
